Handset Sharing
Note:
Not relevant to the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200.
The traditional concept of a communication device is to have a device (phone) assigned to a number
(SIP user).
The basic concept of handset sharing is to break the link between the device and the user, and make
it possible for any user to sign-in to any device.
This is typically done for one of two reasons.
l The scenario requires more handsets than users.
One such scenario could be a certain user, which is required to have 24/7 operation, and
where there is no or very little possibility for charging the handset while in use. Imagine a hos-
pital with a nurse on duty. When the shift of the nurse on duty ends it is possible to let the next
nurse use a different handset (fully charged because it was not used by the previous nurse).
This way several nurses can share a line/number without sharing a device. Normally 30
minutes of charging of the handset will be sufficient every 24 hours, thus under normal con-
ditions it is not necessary to have extra devices only for the purpose of charging while not in
use.
